Enterprise Linux 3.0 apache upgrade

Howdy
We have a few EL 3.0 servers here, and I've been tasked to upgrade apache from the default 2.0.46 to 2.0.55 from the source tgz.

However, ./configure wants to install it at /usr/local/apache2, not /usr/sbin. Even using --prefix=/usr doesnt give me the right directory structure.

Am I missing something (besides brain cells), or do I have to install it manually?

Thanks in advance

From my experience, apache is always installed to /usr/local/ and not /usr/sbin. /usr/sbin just has a few of the apache common commands and where other executable commands reside and not compiled sources...

If you compile from source everything related to apache usually goes into /usr/local/apache or /usr/local/apache2.
